Social Balance

Privacy Notice

Last updated: 17 July 2026

SocialBalance.dance helps organizers publish dance events and lets attendees RSVP without creating an attendee account. This notice explains what data the product collects and how it is used and retained.

What we collect

  • Organizer account data: username, email address, and account timestamps.
  • Event details that organizers publish, including venue and community links.
  • Attendee RSVP data: self-typed first name, selected role (leader or follower), RSVP timestamp, and a 6-digit management PIN. The PIN is stored only as a bcrypt hash (not plaintext) so attendees can change or cancel their own RSVP without an account.
  • A salted IP hash used only for RSVP abuse prevention and rate limiting. The hash lives in a service-role-only table (not on the publicly readable attendee list) and is not the raw IP address.

Why we collect it

  • To create and maintain organizer accounts.
  • To publish event pages and show live attendee balance counts.
  • To display RSVP lists to anyone who has the direct event link.
  • To let attendees manage or cancel their own RSVP with their PIN.
  • To limit spam, scripted RSVP abuse, and other misuse.

Public visibility

RSVP attendee names and roles are visible on the public event page to anyone who has the event link. That is expected product behavior: the attendee list and leader/follower balance are the core purpose of the app. Management PINs and PIN hashes are never shown on the event page.

Retention

RSVP rows (including names, roles, and the paired PIN hash / IP hash) are automatically deleted 7 days after the occurrence start time. Organizer account records may be retained as needed for service operation and support. Lost management PINs cannot be recovered by the platform — ask the organizer to remove the RSVP from their dashboard instead.

Organizer account deletion

To request organizer account deletion, email privacy@socialbalance.dance. Deletion is request-based for launch; self-service account deletion is not available yet.
